Sulfur, Sulfate, Sulfite

Subject: Sulfur, Sulfate, Sulfite

SULFUR:
A non-metallic element present in all proteins; a mineral - a constituent
of Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) and Biotin and several essential amino acids
necessary for manufacturing collagen (which helps to form bones, tendons,and
"connective tissue"), and a constituent of Keratin (hair, skin,
and nails); occuring widely in nature both free and combined in several
allotropic forms. It is used in black gun-powder, rubber vulcanisation,
the manufacture of insecticides and pharmaceuticals, and in the preparation
of important sulfur compounds, such as hydrogen sulfide and sulfuric acid.

SULFATE:
A chemical compound containing the bivalent group SO4. To treat
or react with sulfuric acid or a sulfate.

SULFURIC
ACID: A highly corrosive, dense oily liquid, colourless to dark
brown depending on purity and used to manufacture a wide variety of chemicals
and materials including fertilisers, paints, detergents, and explosives.
Also called "oil of vitriol".

SULFUROUS
ACID: A colourless solution of sulfur dioxide in water, characterised
by a suffocating sulphurous odour, used as a bleaching agent, preservative,
and disinfectant.

THE
VITAMIN CONNECTION

VITAMIN
B-1 or THIAMINE: A water soluble vitamin; as co-enzyme
helps break down the pyruvic acid into carbon dioxide and water and converts
lactic acid onto glycogen. Also known as an anti-oxidant.

Pyruvic
Acid: A colourless liquid formed as a fundamental intermediate in
protein and carbohydrate metabolism. It is broken down by Thiamine
into carbon dioxide and water.

Lactic
Acid: A hygroscopic syrupy liquid present in sour milk, molasses,
various fruits, and wines, and used in foods and beverages as an acidulant,
favouring, and preservative, and in adhesives, plasticizers, and pharmaceuticals.
It is broken down by Thiamine into glycogen (sugar). Used
frequently as preservative in candy and soft drinks.

**Vitamin
B-6 in higher dosage than daily requirement can replace steroids such
as Prednisone. Known to stop Herpes attacks as long as
it is taken. Good for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Can stop
seizures and hallucinations.

**Chlorogenic
Acid (found in coffee) destroys Thiamine in the body.

**Lactic
Acid Deficiency causes Fatigue and General Feeling of Lassitude.
Lack of sugar for Nerve Protection renders forms of Neuritis..

VITAMIN
H or BIOTIN: (Biotin Sulfoxide) A colourless crystalline vitamin
often considered in the vitamin B complex. Essential for the activities
of various enzymes involved in the breakdown of fatty acids and carbohydrates.
Also manufactured by intestinal bacteria.

***CYSTINE:
A non-essential amino acid, the principal sulfur-containing amino acid
of protein. (Not to be confused with "Cysteine" Amino
Acid.)

COLLAGEN:
Found in connective tissues, bones, and tendons, and manufactured with
the aide of Amino Acids.

**Those
"Diseases Malfunctioning of the Immune System" and known
as "Auto-Immune Disorders". Often affects
the blood vessels and is called "Collagen Vascular Diseases"
--- secondary damage in connective tissues and called Rheumatoid Arthritis,
Systemis Lupus Erthematosis, Periarteris Nodosa, Scleroderma, Dermatomyositis,
and "other" less clearly identified disorders.

***Vitamin
B-12 taken approximately 20 to 30 minutes before anything eaten
or drank with "sulfites" converts many of them to IN-ACTIVE
substances.

***VITAMIN
B-12 and FOLATE together form more red cells.

***FOLIC
ACID: Plays vital role in activities of various enzymes involved
in

Allergy
and Sensitivity to Sulfur and/or either of its derivatives can cause a
whole body response, not just that of a commonly seen rash following the
ingestion of a sulfur-based antibiotic. Sulfur is found, naturally,
throughout the whole body as evidenced and verified by Vitamin B-1 (Thiamine)
and Vitamin H (Biotin), One Essential Amino Acid (Methionine) and Two
Non-essential Amino Acids (Cyestine and Cystine) and can be found stored
within the connective tissues.

Both
Vitamin B-1(Thiamine) and Vitamin H (Biotin) are sulfur based and thus
very high in sulfur, as are the above mentioned Amino Acids.

A
person being allergic and or sensitive to sulfur and its derivatives,
will likely have a reaction to this. The concentrations of the sulfurs
found naturally here are not as concentrated as that usually found in
the antibiotics often prescribed for various infections, and from which
a more violent reaction is commonly seen and manifested as a rash.
The forms of this sulfur are essentially the same. If the
medication form causes an allergic reaction, then it is likely that your
body is also reacting to the sulfur within but in a less violent way but
on a continual basis.

If
the body is reacting negatively to the sulfur content of those vitamins
and Amino Acids, would it not stand to reason, that your body is not getting
the benefits of those vitmains and amino acids and in reality would be
"deficient" in them? See the list of "Deficiency
Symptoms". How many of them fit Behcets Symptoms?

If
the sulfur allergy overrides the Vitamin B-1 (Thiamine) thus allowing
toxic levels of peruvuc Acid in the brain, personality changes, erratic
behaviour, depression, and forgetfulness are common results.
Your intake or ingestion of the amount of sulfur via the Vitamins and
Amino Acids as in the foods and beverages you consume fluctuate on a daily
basis, would not the level or concentration of sulfur, and or peruvic
acid also fluctuate? Also known to be affected in this same manner
are other behavioural problems as directly related to the B-1 or Thiamine
deficiency such as outbursts and rage, and hypothermia (low body temperature).

A
sulfur allergy as related to Biotin can be seen in digestive problems
with such foods and beverages as milk, liver, and eggs.

Given
the sulfur content and constant exposure to varying amounts of sulfur
and the body's allergic response to sulfur, it is any wonder that the
body would reach such an extreme and intense total body reaction to it?

The
underlying cause for the "allergy to sulfur" is believed to
stem from a gene that malformed before birth.

I
have applied the symptoms and conditions as related to the above Vitamins
B-1 (Thiamine) and H (Biotin) and the Amino Acids respectively.
The majority of the symptoms given in the Deficiencies of these are found
also as Behcets symptoms.

Is
this coincidence or is this the "missing link" and maybe the
"core" of Behcets?

I
am undertaking my own research testing of this with application to my
own body. The protocol being, AVOID foods listed as high in
sulfur naturally, avoid foods and beverages high in Vitamin B-1 (Thiamine)
and Vitamin H (Biotin) and the 3 Amino Acids respectively, all asparin
products, zinc, Lactic Acids.

Supplement
with Vitamin B-12 apx 20 to 30 minutes prior to a meal.

Supplement
with Vitamin B-12 immediately after a meal to build red blood cells in

bone marrow.

Supplement
with Folic Acid immediately after a meal for production and growth of

red blood cells and healthy functioning of the nervous

system.

Supplement
with Vitamin B-6 when taking medications for immune system control

Supplement
with Vitamin E for formation normal cell structure and formation of red

blood cells.

I
will continue my current medications as prescribed by my physician.
I have checked and verified that none of the above Vitamins will work
against them, as are none of them known to be "immune boosters".

the schedule and dosages of medications and vitamin supplements,
please see the section titled "Protocol of Medications and
Vitamins".
